Methods to set the date

When invoked with file paths, you choose whether to set their modification times

• to the specified time
• to the date from the Exif through jhead
• to a name auto-detected from the file name, ex: IMG_20240101_010053.jpg → 2024-01-01 01:00:53
• to a relative time
• to the specific time, set for a file, then shifts all the other relative to this

Full help

Everything can be achieved via CLI flag. See the --help.

Let's take fetching the time from the file name as an example.

Should you end up with files that keep the date in the file name, use the --from-name parameter. In the help, you see that True trigger an automatic detection of the time and date format.

$ touch-timestamp 20240828_160619.heic --from-name True
